Hey guys, just wanted to say hi and whats up. I'm from the US and have been looking for a good skyline forum for a while now since there is such a lack of reliable information floating arround in the states. The R34 GTR has been sort of my dream car for the past few years but since theyre about $90,000 USD in America... well doesnt seem like i'll be getting one anytime soon. I own a 93 Honda Prelude which is the main car I drive, I also have an AE86 which isnt running right now, and an 87 Accord. Next car i plan to buy is either a Supra, RX-7, or i'm even contemplating a 240 with the sr20det swap.

Anyway, off the bat i was wondering if there is anywhere i should start reading on this site, or do you guys mind if i ask questions that have already been covered? I am interested in quartermile times for each model, maybe some real dyno numbers. In one of the US mags, APEXi claims that their stock R33 ran a 12.3 in the quartermile and I just find that hard to believe. Which models are the fastest? How much horsepower do they really have?

Well I'm sure I'll be spending a lot of time reading all the threads here, so I should find most of my answers.

Thanks

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
